Abstract
A computational comparison is made of the radiotoxicity and residual energy release of spent uranium–plutonium and thorium–uranium nuclear fuel during long-term storage. The contribution of the most significant nuclides, whose primary extraction and transmutation make it possible to decrease energy release and radiotoxicity of the remaining stored wastes, is determined. 2 figures, 4 references.
